    Just confirmed on TNT. Instead Harden and Irving will take the final 2 spots.

    They did a random draw to predict the order and Wes will have (get to?) to shoot first.

    I wonder if Dame was asked and turned them down. Good for him if that's the case, forget a counsolation prize.

    Still an amazing list without dame. 3/8 will make it to the championship round.

    The order in the first round

    Wes
    Reddick
    Harden
    Irving
    Curry
    Thompson
    Korver
    Belinelli

    Skills challenge actually has a decent lineup as well, and they've changed the way it works. 2 players will be on the court at the same time, it will be a bracket elimination, and players will end by making a 3 pointer(instead of a dunk).

    The brackets are as follows
    I. Thomas vs J. Wall | T. Burke vs B. Knight

    M. Carter Williams vs J. Teague | J. Butler vs K. Lowry

    Dame has been atrocious from three lately. It's probably for the best that he not participate.

    Probably a wise decision. 2 for his last 30! It might have been embarrassing.

    And if I'm not mistaken, 16 of his last 83... Some number like that. Teens/eighties.
